  • Who's the first singer? Marion Cotillard? I mean the one singing "Hey there, Miss Streisand".

  • @miguelucho20008 Idina Menzel (from "Wicked" as Elphaba the green lady) obviously the person she is singing to is Barbra Streisand (from "Funny Girl" as Fanny)

  • @soccerdestroyer Thanks for the info. Jesus! She looks -and even sounds, a lot like the French actress!

  • go Freemans!!!!!!!!!!

  • Please Help to Support these men

  • john hopkins university: 1 million dead in iraq - INNOCENTS. bushs vote : STOLEN. iraq ? stolen ! ( HALLIBURTON) WMD? non existent. bush as senator ? a killer, merciless. his balance ? disaster for the usa, economy in smithereens, enemies with all the world, failed as oil trader, laughingstock to his own people by now. hated by everybody. can anyone conceive of a more DISASTROUS balance ? WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MINDS WOULD WANT TOBE SEEN WITH SUCH A MAN LESS BE " HONOURED" BY HIM !?

  • The Who are the best!! Hands down, it's about time. Congratulations!!!

  • it is unbelievable how the anglo americans shamelessly celebrate and flatter each other and themselves. this is not patriotism,this is decadence. it is like in senator maccarthy´s days when any intelligent reaction to the idiocy of the leading class was considered " communist propaganda" . intelligent,smart, educated, REAL and good hearted people should stand up, leave, or even better:SPIT IN THE FACE OF THESE LYING MASS MURDERERS HERE

  • Morgan is the man! He so deserves his honor.

  • Who is the lady who sang "Love reign O'er me" for The Who? Dont know bout you but that is whats missing in music today HEART

  • George Jones ... You rock... look at the President ... he thinks so too... love you George.

  • Idina Menzel gave a very tinny, shrilly, zero torque rendition on tis funny girl classic. She's way out of her league. i felt so sorry for Barbra, they could have done so much better. what a disappointment.

  • LMAO. Shrilly? Zero torque? Someone's smoking something.

  • Cheno could have done much better and she's such a huge fan of Barbra . . .

  • @katclif  my exact thoughts

  • her voice is just mind blowing

  • omg so all i can say is that idina menzel was AMAZING she was gorgeous..i think idina willbecome the next Barbra Steisand..i really hope this song comes out

  • ooh i cant wait for a full version of Idinas song :)

  • i know! i just got home so i might have missed it on tv. i can't wait to see it online

  • is it really gonna come out?

  • Morgan was best on the ELECTRIC COMPANY :)

  • come on he was terrific in driving miss daisy, and he also played a pimp that was downright scary. brilliant actor, well deserving of this honor...notice how carolyn kennedy didn't say one "ya know"

  • It looks like Beyonce was trying to have Streisands style in her voice and dress. She looks great :)

  • I still don't quite get the idea that just winning one Academy Award qualifies you for it...I jsut checked Streisand's body of work and came out 2 academy awards, 1 tony, FRench legion of honors, 8 grammys, 10 golden globes and go figure if you have time how many emmys, peabody, sag awards....Freeman, The Who, Jones...uhmmm...I don't get it...Talented sure but "Ground breaking, deep impact in american culture, lifetime commitment??Sinatra, Aretha, Graham, Tharp, Scorcese...I get it

  • With countless gold, platinum, and multi-platinum albums, she's the HIGHEST SELLING FEMALE RECORDING ARTIST EVER?  Come on... It's about damn time for this award...

  • I also agree with the idea that I thought these type of honors were given to "lifelong, ground breaking impact, major influence in American Culture" I agree Barbra Streisand and Twyla Tharp fit this category along with former recepients like Aretha, Carol Burnett, Sinatra, Redford, Lucille Ball, Barishniknov, Chita Rivera, Martha Graham to name a few

  • I LOVE IDINA MENZEL! YAYEEZ!!

  • Yes....we know your opinion.....move on please. No need to try and get people to rally with you.

  • barbra and idina in one place? heaven on earth =]

  • I know eh?!

  • Really. What a nasty thing to say. When you get a Kennedy Center Honor.....we'll talk.

  • he's an Oscar winning actor. Plus the same role gave him a SAG award, so the guild respects him. With an Oscar, he has the Academy on his side..so yeah, it's basically the Academy's opinion versus yours...sorry to say, i think the Academy wins out. And he was Oscar-nominated for The Shawshank Redemption...that film alone is enough for him to get this honor, IMO.

  • Oh lighten up blue angel.....Just a comment...not an earth shattering revalation....just an opinion....you dish out but can't take it.......life is too short. Move on please.

  • I'd love to hear Barbra Streisand sing a George Jones song. Maybe "He Stopped Loving Her Today"? And George can return the favor by appropriately singing, "The Way We Were".

  • It's all about the Who! No one can upstage Pete & Roger!

  • You're right no one can upstage The Who. The first rock band to receive the Kennedy Center honor. Just proves they are the greatest.

  • and rightfully so :D

  • Idina Menzel!!! :)

  • Can't wait to watch this! Especially the part where Idina sings!
